Post-doc and Post-Masters Fellowships
Workshop: Starting a Private Practice
Dr. Cynthia Divino, Ph.D.
Tracking down information to open a private practice can be time-consuming and overwhelming. This course breaks it down into manageable steps and gives you all the information you need to start a successful private practice. While this course covers all of practical considerations, exploring clinical considerations enlivens material that could be dry and pedantic. Marketing, HIPPA requirements, billing, and applicable laws are just a few of the topics covered in this course.
A Private Practice Manual and electronic form templates (to simplify the task of creating forms) are included in the cost of the workshop.
When: Saturday Feb 4, 2012
Time: 8:30-4:30
Where: 2133 13th Street, Boulder
Cost $95.

Save the Date! Upcoming Front Porch Lecture Series
Dr. Efrat Ginot, Ph.D. – Friday, May 18, 2012, 8:30 am – 4:30 pm
The Empathic Power of Enactments: The Link between Neuropsychological Processes and an Expanded Definition of Empathy
Dr. Ginot is a gifted clinician whose elegant case examples beautifully demonstrate how principles of neuroscience can be used to produce change in psychotherapy. Her deep understanding of therapeutic enactments and her empathic responses to these entanglements have been an inspiration to all at BIPR who have read and studied her work. We feel very fortunate that Dr. Ginot has agreed to present at an upcoming Front Porch Lecture.
Dr. Beatrice Beebe, Ph.D. – Friday, August 3, 2012, 1:30pm – 5:30pm
Infant Research and Adult Treatment: Videotaping Mother-Infant Interactions and Videotaping the Analyst’s Face
Dr. Beebe will explore a view of face-to-face interactive processes that informs both mother-infant communication and adult treatment. Three bodies of information will be brought together. First, a dyadic systems view of face-to-face communication will set the stage for an understanding of nonverbal communication across the lifespan. This view construes the dyadic system to be the basic unit of interest. Second, this dyadic systems view will be illustrated through research on early mother-infant communication disturbances. And third, this dyadic system will be used to explore processes of nonverbal communication in adult treatment through a new project, “Videotaping the Analyst’s Face: Video Feedback Consultations for a Patient Who Does Not Look.”
